DHCP error

Note to self: when dhclient responds with:

/sbin/dhclient-script:configuration for eth3 not found

take a look in/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and make sure that ifcfg-eth3exists.

I'm such a bonehead at times. This caused a situation where afriend's windows laptop would connect to the network just fine but mykluge-box wouldn't. Nothing was getting logged. I didn't notice untilI started running all of the commands manually.

Based on the number oftimes this shows up in Google, this is a common problem.
